Biography[]
T'mar served under K'lior and Cisca in Fort Weyr as a Wingleader. After several dragons died from the Dragon Plague, it left too few dragons to battle Threadfall. T'mar took injured riders and dragons ten Turns back in Time to Igen Weyr - to allow the injured to heal, rest and train. The plan was for them to spend three years back in time, then return three days after they left. What T'mar didn't expect was for Fort Weyr's junior weyrwoman Fiona and all the weyrlings to be waiting for them at Igen, having been brought by a mysterious gold rider from the future.
As the oldest and healthiest rider, T'mar became Igen's temporary Weyrleader, while Fiona's Talenth became Igen's senior Queen and Fiona became Igen's Weyrwoman. T'mar served the Weyr as best he could, guiding the younger ones, but also letting them learn on their own. Over time, he grew very close to Fiona, and might have fallen in love with her.
After all the dragons and dragonriders of Telgar Weyr got stuck in a between 'Time Knot' when its Weyrleader D'gan was ill and gave unclear coordinates, Fiona, T'mar, Lorana, Kindan and several other dragonriders went to the empty Telgar Weyr. Fiona became its senior Queen, with the Weyrleader remaining unknown until Talenth rose for a mating flight.
But, tragedy struck when T'mar was thrown against a wall and thought to be dead. Zirenth, not feeling any life in his rider, began to go between, only to be stopped by Lorana and Kindan. While T'mar was recovering from a concussion, Talenth rose to mate. Even though T'mar was still ill, Zirenth took part in the mating flight and caught Talenth. With T'mar immobile, Fiona mated with Kindan. But, because Zirenth flew Talenth, T'mar became Telgar's Weyrleader.
